The bimetallic strip consists of brass and stainless steel. Since brass has higher thermal [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_thermal_expansion expansion coefficient] than stainless steel. When it is heated by the burner, it bends to the stainless steel side. On the other hand, placed in liquid nitrogen (77K) the strip bends in opposite which is to the brass side. | The bimetallic strip consists of brass and stainless steel.
